Abstract:
In a particular embodiment, a method of managing a cache memory includes, responsive to a cache size change command, changing a mode of operation of the cache memory to a write through/no allocate mode. The method also includes processing instructions associated with the cache memory while executing a cache clean operation when the mode of operation of the cache memory is the write through/no allocate mode. The method further includes after completion of the cache clean operation, changing a size of the cache memory and changing the mode of operation of the cache to a mode other than the write through/no allocate mode.
